Contest Entry for: and here: [link]

Phew...I still made in time...o_o Here it is my entry for their contest!

I decided to draw Dark and Rika in a very cute moment! When I read their description, I read that Dark never leaves Rika's side and is always protecting her from any kind of pain and taking care of her in everything to make her happy. ^^ Here, she's happily hugging him after his return to stay by her side again!

Also, Dark and Rika love each other, but each one have their ways to express it even if neither of both knows about each other's feelings! Rika doesn't tell him her feelings with the fear of being rejected while Dark is more the type of choosing a right moment to tell her!

In terms of personalities, Rika is more extrovert while he's a bit more serious, even if very kind!

Their relationship is a secret love for both! Rika and Dark can love each other, but, by different reasons, they chose to not confess their love even if they express it many times by actions, consciously or unconsciously.

This is also one of those moments! And I had chosen to draw different outfits to somehow fit with the idea for the background. ^^ The theme was "fantasy" to highlight their love relationship type and development. :3

And! It's my first time coloring trees and using a more "real" background, aka without lines, so it took me a while to make it the way I wanted. ><

I guess that's all! I hope you all like it, principally the contest holders. ^^

Entrada para el Concurso de: y aquí: [link]


Phew... Aún ha hecho a tiempo...o_o Aquí está mi entrada para su contest!

He decidido en deseñar Dark y Rika en un momento muy bonito! Cuando ha leído su descripción, descubrí que Dark nunca la deja sola y está siempre protegiendo-a de cualquier dolor y cuidando de ella en todo para hacerla feliz. ^^ Aquí, ella está abrazando-o muy contenta después de su retorno para estar de su lado una vez más.

Además, Dark y Rika se aman, pero cada uno tiene sus maneras de expresarlo mismo que ninguno sabe sobre sus sentimientos! Rika no le dice sus sentimientos con miedo de ser rechazada mientras Dark es más del tipo de escoger el momento cierto para lo decir!

Hablando de sus personalidades, Rika es más extrovertida mientras Dark es un poco más serio, mismo que muy amable!

Su relacione es un amor secreto para ambos! Rika and Dark se pueden amar, pero, por motivos diferentes, elles han escogido no confesar su amor mismo que ambos lo expresan muchas veces por sus acciones, conscientemente o inconscientemente.

Esto es un de esos momentos! Y ha escogido en crear trajes diferentes para de alguna forma se ajustar con la idea del pano de fundo. ^^ El tema fue "fantasía" para intensificar su tipo de relación amorosa y evolución. :3

Y! Es mi primera vez coloreando arboles y usando una coloración más "real", aka sin lineas, por eso me ha tomado algún tiempo para tener el resultado que quería. ><

Bueno, pienso que es todo! Espero que todos les gusten, principalmente los responsables por el contest. ^^

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE GONNA LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry! Had to do that!

Anemia, huh? My mother has anemia. She tells me that it is not all that serious, just when you have low iron in your blood. But you already mentioned that. I'm glad it's not anything truly serious. But yes, I suggest that you do be careful so this won't happen again.

But anyway, I'm glad that you will be okay! No, MORE than glad!

You're very welcome! I'm more than glad that I could be of help!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

StarSophi In reply to Daybreak-Adder [2011-12-03 19:56:44 +0000 UTC]

Hahahahahah, don't worry. XD I actually liked and smiled with it!

Serious is always serious... Sometimes the deceases that comes from below are the danger ones... Believing or not, Anemia is a health problem that can steal your life...<_< And as I said and responded to some other people, it depends of what kind of Anemia it is and at the time it's diagnosed. There are simple types that doesn't evolves that quickly but there are others which can even take you to leukemia!

My treatment was not only based in Iron... I had to make my blood to be stronger than how it was... Basically my blood was starting to get very weak, and since my defenses tends to get low and vitamins strength was almost nonexistent, it brings you more danger.

If a doctor hugged you happy for the result and everything, you can imagine that it wasn't that simple as many people think of it...

Tell to your mother that Anemia is not so simple as she looks at... I had the same impression as her and when I saw the diagnosis saying that I had it, I was completely tranquil until I check my doctor and he says that my situation could bring higher complications... I could even need blood transference! And in some of those cases sometimes our body doesn't accept it and we can even die due to it.

Plus, if my treatment wouldn't result, I could even get a chronic Anemia! I have a...humm...how to say in english... Medium? Not completely safe, nor always with the disease... But yeah not really chronic so far thank goodness... It's something I need to be careful to be with my entire life, but so far is still not one that I need to get treatments every day. At least for now as my doctor says, but I hope it's forever! O_O Which is a high possibility if I have my eyes open! :3

And so these are actually the reasons of him to say that it was a luck to get it diagnosed this soon...;_;

But since everything went positive, I'll be sure to actually live my days intensely than before. <3

And you're awesome you know?

Daybreak-Adder In reply to StarSophi [2011-12-03 22:25:10 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha!

Well, I did know that it would kill you if it does become that way if you get what I am saying. Let's just hope that won't turn into leukemia. I most certainly would not want that to happen to a good friend.

I see. My mother was suffering from high blood pressure and she is on some kind of medication to keep it down. Is there any sort of medication that you are taking to help?

I see. Well, hopefully those complications won't come to pass. I didn't know that blood transfusions could be fatal though. I would help donate blood, but I live all the way in the US and I don't know if it would be able to get to Portugal if you know what I mean.

Again, we will have to hope that it doesn't become that way. Yes, please do be careful. We don't want something this scary to ever happen again.

I know what you mean! And that is a very good thing if you ask me!

Aww! Thank you! I'm so glad that you think that! You are awesome too!

P.S. Did you have a bit of trouble sending the message? I got it three times here. Don't worry about it though. That happens!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

StarSophi In reply to Daybreak-Adder [2011-12-04 21:16:24 +0000 UTC]

Well, I'll be sure to do everything to not get that way! Besides, we can't always think in the worst of the possibilities neh? For now is controlled and is what basically I'm concentrated in... Is very scary I don't deny it, but my doctor says that if we have our eyes open, is not so easy to catch a problem of that type. ^^ And that's the phrase that makes me keep being positive around this situation.

My medication now is around vitamins and vaccines. ^^ Also a diet containing the most possible natural vitamins, iron, minerals and fibers, plus a little bit of exercise!

My mother also have the problem of high blood pressure... It sucks! :/

The major of them are successfully transfused but there were already cases of people not accepting it and die... It's not our blood anyway and so some organisms rejects an external transfusion, causing high fevers and infections...><

Awwww, it's very kind of you! But I guess that is not possible due to the far away countries...o.o Blood need to be flesh and so I think they avoid transports... usually, Hospitals pays the voyage for a person outside to come and give blood if necessary and if Portugal doesn't have one person to help. ^^

I will my dear! I'll be sure to avoid more complications, so no worries! I'm also not desiring another episode...><

Hehehez indeed. Sometimes we go out to work and then come to our house, eat, sleep and goes to another routine day... Now I think that we need to live our days better than this... Do different stuff with family and friends and not think in work and all everytime! We surely need the money, but money is not everything! >:/

Awwww, thanks a lot sweetie! I was just honest with you!


PS: Yeah! First I saw some errors and corrected...but then I also had internet connection problems as well and sent another 2...xD Sorry about that! x3

Daybreak-Adder In reply to StarSophi [2011-12-07 04:08:08 +0000 UTC]

That's what you should do. And if you only think of the worst, it will happen. So think positive!

That sounds reasonable! I would do the same if I had that kind of issue.

Apparently so.

Never really thought about that. If I do donate at some time, I would make sure I got a blood test before so.

Yeah, I didn't think it would be possible for it to come from out of the country. I would travel to Portugal and do so, but 1) that costs a lot of money and 2) I don't know where you live.

That's good! And you will stay in my prayers.

Yeah, I know what you're saying. And no, money is not everything.

You're welcome! And I'm being honest with you too!

PS: Yeah, that happened to me at some points. It's alright. I don't mind. And you changed your icon too. I like it!

StarSophi In reply to Daybreak-Adder [2012-02-27 23:14:21 +0000 UTC]

Yup, you're indeed right! ^^

Indeed, we all should know if we can donate or not and a blood test is always welcome!

Hahahahahaz, it would be a big travel indeed! xD The location would surely be a problem because if I was in the hospital it would be impossible to tell you! Unless someone of my family could tell you but for that they would need to know you! o_o xD

Awww, that's sweet of you! :3 You'll be in mine as well. ^^

Indeed! Even tho we need it to survive...;__; But we have to take some time to ourselves as well! D: And have a better life! <3



PS: Internet connection sometimes SUCKS! :/ Hehez, yeah! <3 I'm glad you like it! Wanted a more humm..."cutey" one.

Daybreak-Adder In reply to StarSophi [2012-02-28 00:27:39 +0000 UTC]



Yeah, that is too true.

I already went to Portugal once. Only for two weeks. Five days was actually in the Azores, Five days were in Madeira, and the rest were in the mainland. Well, anyway, yeah that is true. And I don't speak Portuguese. I speake some Spanish, but I don't think I know enough to actually have a formal conversation with someone.

You're welcome! Aww! Thank you!

Yes, that is true. That is true as well.



P.S. Yes, it does! It is cutie, that's for sure! As you could tell, I changed mine too! About a month ago or so.

I speak Spanish as well due to my job. XD It's somehow funny and very alike to Portuguese in a way so it wasn't hard to learn, even tho I still have some difficulties in some words. xD

My pleasure sweetie. <3

Yup! Umm... Porto, Lisbon, and I forget what the other city was. But for the Azores, we were in Faial, Pico, and Sao Miguel.

I see. Interesting. I'm learning Spanish in school, but I'm not very advanced. Only Spanish II. My teacher calls me Senorita Perfecta because I do so well and, not meaning to brag but, I get the highest scores in class. That's why everyoned hates me. Because I destroy the curve. But, yes, sometimes it can be pretty difficult.

Thanks! Her name is Alexia Lynn Elesius. She's from the game Wild ARMs XF.

Still don't really remember what it was. But that might've been it. Yeah, I did. Was not the best trip we ever had, but we still had fun. The worst part about it was the volcanized meal we had in either Sao Miguel or Madeira. That was TERRIBLE!!! But still one of the most memorable.

Yeah that's true. Okay, I will. And yeah, that does help.

You know the series?

Well, for a while, I was thinking you had been invaded by the planet Zizzabattawattawattaboinkboinkthree and they brainwashed you and renamed you Steve!

...Okay, no I didn't. I totally made that up. But I was still a little concerned. But don't worry to much about it. If there's a lot going on, then I totally understand.

Hahahahaha! São Miguel is one of the cities characterized to have those kind of meals. XD Even I don't like those type of flavors. xD Portugal (continent) is way better in question of food and all. C:

Yeah I know the series, even tho I never played but always had the curiosity... Unfortunately hadn't had the opportunity to do so...

LMAO! No kidding why you thought that way but as i said in my journals, things are happening and I'm kind of "inactive". I'm trying to change that but there are times it's really hard. >< I'm having lots of projects out of here as well and it's being difficult to deal with everything...D:
